That's pretty scary and pretty sad to hear. That is the reason why I hated following or driving beside the semis. One time I was driving Northbound Deerfoot Trail to 16th Avenue. It was hot so i have my windows wide open. Suddenly, this semi drove past me and i felt a small rock almost hitting me in the face. Even a tiny rock will do damage on a person especially when the truck is driving so fast. I am just thankful I didn't get hit especially on my eyes.
I am not sure what could have been done but i guess the best thing to do is just avoid those big trucks on the highway.
